Next Chapter

The spring water is blue in the sky, leaning on the window to listen to the rain.

In Nanjing in March, the drizzle was misty, and the rain was like a pipa whispering, wetting the green trees and powder walls.

The doors and windows of the east wing of Zhuo Hanlin's mansion were closed, and the two little girls whispered under the porch.

The medicinal fragrance in the room was strong, Zhuo Ruoning tightly covered her mouth and nose with a quilt, only revealing a pair of big black eyes full of mist, looking at the woman in front of her vigilantly and aggrievedly.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Nian Nian was obedient and drank the divine water. ”

What coaxed her was Zhuo Ruoning's cheap mother, the eldest wife of Zhuo's mansion, Lin.

She is a thin and beautiful woman, with apricot eyes and peach cheeks, and a beautiful appearance, but there is a mist of sorrow between her eyebrows and eyes.

"You're going to die if you eat indiscriminately!" Zhuo Ruoning's pitiful voice came from the quilt.

"Nonsense, this is the talisman water I asked for from Qiu Shenxian, it can calm the soul and strengthen the soul, and it is the most effective way to drive away evil spirits and filth, so drink it quickly."

Zhuo Ruoning wanted to cry without tears, and found that no matter how much he defended, it was useless.

In fact, her real identity is a wormhole research expert, because she made a mistake when debugging the hyperspace jumping instrument, she traveled to this world and became the current Zhuo Ruoning.

In the face of a steady stream of bitter pills and all kinds of strange runes, she only blamed herself for being too reckless, and she shouldn't have rushed to explain her identity to these people when she first woke up. As a result, not only was they not helped, but they were treated as crazy.

"I don't drink it, it's disgusting!"

She relied on Lin's good speech to make the last resistance.

The curtain at the door moved, and a woman in a blue bikina came in.

The mother-in-law came over and tore off the quilt on her body, and persuaded her earnestly: "Fifth girl, you drink it quickly, my wife asked for it with great difficulty!" The old lady will celebrate her 70th birthday next month, and there will be no fewer guests at home who will come to pay their respects, so you have to get better quickly and appear in front of everyone in good health to calm down the gossip outside! ”

Zhuo Ruoning, who suddenly lost the protection of the quilt, curled up on the sheets like a kitten and shivered. She didn't have a few taels of flesh on her body, she looked like she had a big head and a small body, and a pair of big black eyes took up half of her face.

The little milk cat was weak and couldn't escape the control of her mother-in-law, so she lifted it up and held it in her arms.

After tossing for a few days, she already knows how to watch people cook, although her cheap lady is the eldest lady of the family, she has no opinions, and she is a person as soft as dough.

is this wet nurse, who is resolute in her work, and she is not accommodating at all just because she is the young lady of the family.

"Mother Jiang, I just finished drinking Chinese medicine, and drinking this again will cause diarrhea."

Mother Jiang ignored her protests, pressed her hands, and said ruthlessly, "Madam, hey." ”

"Nian Nian is obedient, he drank the divine water, drove away all the unclean things, and opened his mouth to ......"

Lin hurriedly handed the bowl to her mouth.

Zhuo Ruoning couldn't move in Jiang's mother's arms, and had no choice but to accept her fate, anyway, she drank bitter medicine from unknown sources every day, and she was not bad for this bowl of dirty runic water.

Just as she closed her eyes as if she were dead, a girl panted and ran in to spread the word.

"Big wife, General Xiao Geng has come to visit the five girls."

Lin's hand froze in mid-air: "Geng Kan, has he returned to Beijing?" ”

"When you came back on the morning of your arrival in Nanjing, I heard that you won the battle, and you were appointed by the emperor as the commander of the right guard of the horse."

"It's getting more and more promising," Lin sighed when he heard this, and then said angrily: "His promotion to his official has nothing to do with our family's thoughts!" Go and tell him that it is inconvenient for Nian Nian to see a foreign man, so let him go back. ”

Zhuo Ruoning opened her eyes and rarely saw Lin's angry look.

After the girl left, she asked ignorantly, "Who is General Xiao Geng?" ”

"Fifth girl, have you even forgotten him?" Chuncha made a fuss, "General Xiao Geng is the second young master of the Changxing Marquis Mansion, your fiancΓ©." ”

"Tsk! What a fiancΓ©! No one is allowed to mention this man again! Lin frowned, extremely dissatisfied with Chuncha's words.

Chuncha hurriedly bowed his head and stepped aside, "Yes, madam, the slave is wrong." ”

Mother Jiang hugged Zhuo Ruoning and comforted the Lin family: "Don't be angry, madam, this marriage hasn't really been withdrawn after all, why don't you let Second Young Master Geng come in to meet the fifth girl, the misunderstanding between young people, just say it, maybe there is a chance to redeem it." ”

Speaking of this, the Lin family is even more angry: "Even if he doesn't retreat, I don't feel at ease when I want to marry in the past, I haven't forgotten what he said when he came to withdraw from the marriage, and every word is heartfelt." If it weren't for him, how could Nian Nian ......"

When she said that she was excited, she suddenly met her daughter's dark eyes, so she stopped talking.

Zhuo Ruoning saw what she meant, and immediately raised her hands to clear the relationship.

"You believe me, I really didn't jump into the river because he jumped into the river, I just woke up that day, I panicked for a while, and it was dark before I fell off the boat."

Once again, her explanation was ignored.

Mother Jiang sighed: "The marriage contract between the fifth girl and the second young master Geng was set since childhood, if he said goodbye earlier, we can still slowly pick others, the fifth girl was divorced at this age, it is really troublesome." To put it mildly, the reputation of divorce spreads, and whether we are wrong or not, the wives will mumble when they look at each other. The fifth girl is weak and does not marry the Geng family, where can you find a better family? ”

Lin fell silent for a moment.
